How the story begins
Chapter 1: The Wonderful Gift
Long ago in Persia, the King held a great festival every New Year, and clever people came from far away to bring him wonderful gifts. One year, a sly old inventor arrived with a horse carved from shining black ebony wood, its saddle glittering with gold. "This horse can fly," he said, "faster than any bird."
